DRYBAR
GLAMSQUAD
Who doesn’t like to be pampered right on your couch, in the comfort of your home? Well, I love it and if you are up for some beauty service at your doorstep, then glamsquad be it! Glamsqaud is an on-demand home beauty service, where you book your service- hair, makeup, up-do or even pedi-mani and the stylist comes to you, with all the tools and products, even mirrors and water tubs for pedicures. What they request for is just an electric-outlet and a table space to lay out their products. Rest all is theirs. Everything, including the payment is done through the app, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
How this works: you book an appointment ( date, time, even stylist ) for the desired service, the stylist comes to you, you don’t have to do any pre-prep, unless it’s a blowout where you are expected to shampoo fifteen minutes prior to you appointment time and skip shampooing overall if it’s a hair up-do.
Since the stylist is pre-aware of what you are expecting, you don’t have to explain nothing, unless you have a hair do and have ideas to run by your stylist. These are all experts in their industry and have been in the business for years. Glamsquad provides these stylist all the tools to work as freelancers and gives them the platform to connect with new potential clients. The prices are pretty descent, a blowout would cost you $55 and you can customize your package and get braids with blowout or add hair-extension service for an extra $25. They are a full-service beauty concierge, meaning you can get hair, makeup, nails, and even take makeup lessons.
Of the two, I enjoy Drybar more. Why?? Well, no matter how convenient an on-demand home-beauty service is, I enjoy being at a salon. The ambience, the stylists and someone else shampooing and messaging my hair- nothing can beat that!
Which one do you think you can get used to??
